🥘 Ingredients
- Fresh Blueberries (6-8 oz): These little gems are the star of the recipe! Their natural sweetness and juicy texture make them the perfect base for this refreshing treat. Make sure they’re rinsed and patted dry to help the yogurt stick to each berry for that creamy coating.
- Vanilla Yogurt (½ cup): Smooth and creamy, the vanilla yogurt wraps each blueberry in a lightly sweet layer of goodness. The hint of vanilla adds a touch of flavor that complements the berries beautifully, making every bite feel like a little indulgence. Feel free to use regular or Greek yogurt, depending on your texture preference!

🔪How To Make Blueberry Yogurt Bites
- Step 1: Insert a toothpick into each blueberry and line a large baking pan with parchment paper.
- Step 2: Dip it into the vanilla yogurt, coating the berry completely.
- Step 3: Slide the yogurt-covered blueberry off the toothpick, placing it onto the prepared pan. Continue until all the blueberries are coated and on the pan.
- Step 4: Freeze for 1-2 hours until firm. Store in an airtight, freezer-safe container. Serve as a refreshing snack whenever you’re ready!
👩🍳 Expert Tips
- Dry the Berries Well: Ensure your blueberries are completely dry before dipping to help the yogurt adhere better.
- Thin Coats Work Best: If you prefer a thicker yogurt layer, consider double-dipping the berries after the first coat has set in the freezer for 15 minutes.
- Use a Toothpick or Skewer: This makes dipping the berries less messy and ensures even coverage of yogurt.
💭 FAQs
Yes, but fresh blueberries are recommended for the best texture and adhesion. Frozen blueberries may release moisture as they thaw, making it harder for the yogurt to stick properly.
Both regular and Greek yogurt work well, but Greek yogurt provides a thicker coating and creamier texture. Opt for flavored or plain yogurt, depending on your taste preference.
Ensure the yogurt-coated blueberries are fully frozen before transferring them to a storage container. Layer them with parchment paper if needed to avoid clumping.
Certainly! This recipe works well with grapes, raspberries, or sliced bananas for variety.
Place the frozen yogurt-covered blueberries into an airtight, freezer-safe container. Store them in the freezer for up to 2 months. For the best texture and flavor, serve them straight from the freezer, as they can soften quickly at room temperature.
